Strengths: Audigy sounds much better than the Live cards did, also has a few features that Live never had.
Weakness: When I first installed i had a problem.... When I started up my computer the sound would be at full volume, for a week or so I simply turned off the start up sounds till Creative finally fixed it.
I love the sound that Audigy puts out, full surround sound with excellent MP3 and CD playback, it also improved audio enviroments used in gamimg. I did have some problems along the way. First was the volume being set on full blast when I started up my computer, I had to make sure that I had my speakers turned off before I started.

The only downside is the bundled software, especially the Play Center with is very limited (can't export play list to edit in word or excel) and crashes all the time. Overall a good value if all you care about is the...

Ingram Creative Sound Blaster Audigy MP3+ Sound Card
Strengths: Easy set-up and install.
Weakness: none so far.
The Audigy MP3+ is an awesome sound card. It makes everything come alive, especially when using it to play games or just simply listening to your downloaded or burned music files. As for technical support....this is the part that "really SUCKS". I would recommend this card to all, but I don't recommend going to tech support or customer service for any help should you encounter any problems with...
